Chapters are more like short stories about her life. Kind of all over the place in terms of when things take place. A little self righteous in places. Some parts make you reflect on yourself too

This is described as a memoir, so I had to manage my expectations while reading when it turned out to be a collection of essays instead. Glennon shares a lot of personal stories and encourages other people struggling or dealing with difficult situations to keep going. Her essays are thoughtful, reflective, and aware. I read this a few months ago, and am having trouble remembering more about my initial impressions.

A coming out story of finding self and standing in your own truth. Its centered in feminism and empowering women and the struggles that society imprints on women.
